Archbishop William Gross established Cathedral School, originally known as St. Mary’s Parochial School, in 1896. In 1900 the school was named St. Mary’s Academy Annex. It was operated by the Sisters of the Holy Names at N.W. 16th and Everett. At the time, there were 15 students enrolled in grades K–4. Beginning with the 1910-11 school year, it became known as Cathedral School. Four years later, Cathedral Parish pastor, Father Edwin O’Hara approved the building of what is now the Cathedral complex along N.W. 17th Street. This building was the site of Cathedral School for 48 years. The school’s location did not change until 1961 when the Dunne family donated their family home property to Cathedral Parish for construction of the present Cathedral School. From as far back as 1910, enrollment was 179 students and reached an all-time high of 295 students in 1964. Enrollment then declined due to the changing nature of the neighborhood. This led to changes in acceptance policy during the 1970s that encouraged broader geographic and ethnic representation of students. Since its founding, Cathedral School has evolved from a neighborhood school to a school that draws students from the Portland tri-county area as well as Clark County in Washington. While many changes have taken place, the school’s values of diversity, respect, reverence for others and belief in God have remained constant through its “Century of Excellence in Education.” B. Vision Cathedral School will be a premier comprehensive Catholic school with a strong emphasis on faith and service. C. Mission The mission of Cathedral School is to provide an excellent academic education grounded in Catholic religious principles and values, thereby creating a lifelong love for learning and a respect for each person and all creation as gifts of God. D. Philosphy In the spirit of our Mission, Cathedral School will: Create a faith community wherein Catholic truths become the foundation of daily living in a global community. Design and implement curricula that provide for the education of the whole person. Provide a learning environment in which all children may grow toward their fullest God-given potential. Foster the physical, emotional, and social well being of each individual. Complement and support the parents in their role as the primary educators of their children. Students are taught to assimilate academic and life skills, as well as social attitudes, which will assist them to internalize Catholic values in their discovery of truth. They are guided toward excellence as contributing and effective members of society. The school is a living encounter with cultural and Catholic heritage. While honoring our parents as primary educators of their children, Cathedral School seeks to nurture the formation of the 6 individual student. As facilitators of learning, teachers encourage the development of critically thinking students who are responsible and self-disciplined and who take pride in being a part of Cathedral and the global community. E. School Wide Student Learning Expectations Cathedral School students continue to strive throughout their lives to… 1. Be a Disciple of Christ: I demonstrate knowledge of Catholic teaching and traditions I participate in prayer and school liturgies I serve my school and local community I show respect and care for all of God’s creations 2. Be a Lifelong Learner: I am engaged in my education and consistently work to my full potential I listen actively and communicate effectively I use resources and my critical thinking skills to solve problems I try my best 3. Be a Good Citizen: I take responsibility for my actions I respectfully interact with others I am a positive member of my community I use technology appropriately As followers of Jesus we are respectful, responsible, and safe. F. Personnel 1. Archbishop The Archbishop, as chief pastor of the Archdiocese, has the responsibility not only for the spiritual formation of the people, but also for every other factor that contributes to the development of the Catholic community. As authentic teacher in the Archdiocese, he articulates faith for the people of God and calls them to the imitation of Christ. As chief administrator of the Archdiocese, he oversees the good order of the teaching mission. The Archbishop is the enactor of all Archdiocesan policy and the ultimate decision maker assisted and represented by the Department of Catholic Schools. 2. Department of Catholic Schools The Archbishop, in his role as Shepherd and Teacher, delegates the everyday administration of the Catholic Schools in the Archdiocese to the Department of Catholic Schools. The Superintendent of Catholic Schools heads the department. The Department of Catholic Schools provides information, guidelines, assistance, and services to the schools that are ordinarily site-based managed and under the leadership of the principal. Although governance of the schools is at the local level, pastors and principals are expected to follow policies and guidelines approved for schools by the Archbishop. 7 3. Pastor The pastor, by direction of the Archbishop and canon law, is directly responsible for all parish endeavors. One such major endeavor is the parish or area school. The pastor can render service and leadership to the parish or area school by acting as a religious leader, community builder, and administrator, working together with the principal, faculty, parents, and other parishioners in a joint effort to advance the education of the children.

DESCRIPTORS *Curriculum; *Educational History; *HigherEducation; *Medieval History; *Universities ABSTRACT This paper provides a brief descriptionof the medieval university, which developed its institutionalstructure during the 12th century. The medieval universitymay be said to have begun in Italy and France in the 12th century, with the Universityof Bologna and the University of Paris serving as models for others. It was not until the 15th centurythat the term "universitas," referring to a corporation, was used exclusivelyto suggest a teaching-learning community. InEngland, Oxford and Cambridgewere the earliest imitators of the Parispattern, and both progressed along similar lines. These institutions thenset the pattern for colonial colleges in America. With regard to instruction,the physical nature of the institution, student evaluation, andcurriculum, European universitieswere the precursors of those that developedin the United States.(Contains 11 references.)

  • Cathedral School Fall Learning Plan 2020
    Fall Learning Plan 2020 The Cathedral Approach “Bonded by open-heartedness, hope, compassion, and concern.” Cathedral School for Boys Mission We have worked steadily over the last few months to prepare a school that is both safe for students and faculty and continues to provide, even under changed and ever-shifting circumstances, “an excellent education for boys.” The last few months have reinforced our longstanding belief that students, especially those in elementary and middle school, learn best in person. However, we remain mindful that there are many factors beyond our control that will ultimately determine whether and when we return to campus. For that reason, we have also continued to improve upon the successful Distance Learning plan that we implemented last spring. Either way, we are well prepared for the eventualities of this fall. Cathedral School Fall Learning Plan 2020 is designed to provide our community with an outline focusing on the people, program, and place needed to safely and effectively educate our students when they return to campus. It also briefly outlines our revised approach to Distance Learning. As such, we operated with the following goals in mind: 1 Maintaining a necessary high level of health and safety 2 Assigning each student to a self-contained grade-level cohort that operates within a designated instructional space and avoids, as much as possible, contact with other student cohorts 3 Offering a high-quality educational experience within the spirit of our Mission As we all recognize, these are unprecedented times. Our ability to teach on campus must take into account a variety of public health guidelines that necessarily alter the school day, how we operate, and how our campus is configured.
